Ingredients

  • 9 " refrigerated whole wheat or regular pie crust shell
  • 3 big Gala or Delicious Red apples I use the sweeter apples to cut down on the amount of sugar I use in the recipe-peeled and cubed/sliced
  • 3 big Bartlett or Bosc pears-peeled and cubed/sliced
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 1/3 cup packed brown sugar If you'd like the pie much sweeter, make this 1/2 cup brown sugar.
  • 2 tablespoons all purpose flour
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/4-1/2 tsp nutmeg
  • 1/4 tsp salt

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
  2. In a pan, melt the butter.
  3. Add to the melted butter the water, brown sugar, flour, cinnamon, nutmeg + salt and mix well.
  4. Take the pan off the stove and mix in the apple + pear cubes/slices.
  5. Ensure each cube/slice is well coated in the sauce.
  6. Pour the mixture into the prepared pie crust and pop your pie into the oven.
  7. Bake for 20-25 minutes or till the crust in golden brown.
